From the brand: This collab revives the puffed-out Kingpin with a Santa Cruz twist. The Kingpin x Santa Cruz keeps the plush tongue, EVA midsole and 400 NBS outsole of the classic model , but is decked out in Santa Cruz artwork and colorways. Expect bright panels, perhaps the Santa Cruz screaming hand on the heel or insole, and dual branding. It’s a chunky, comfortable skate shoe made unique by the clash of etnies’ early-2000s skate design with Santa Cruz’s retro surf-skate art. The result is a “classic puffy tongue shoe” that stands out in any line-up – equal parts nostalgic and bold.
